On Monday of last week, in the
United States Senate, the Edmunds
fisheries bill passed by a vote OF
46 to 1, the dissenting vote being
east by Riddleberger, of Virginia.
This is serving notice on Great
Britain that the violations of trea-
ties and indignities heaped upon
American fishermen will no longer
be tolerated by the United States.

A correspondent of the New York

A correspondent of the New York
Star writing from Washington
says there is growing conviction
that the White House is made
quate to the requirements of an
executive department and a resi-
dent also. The heads of the other
departments have the privilege of
living out of the department, but
the President has not. If all the
Cabinet officers were required to
live in their several departments,
and their privacy was invaded by
swarms of messengers and an oc-
casional policeman, wandering at
his own sweet will about the draw
ing rooms and corridors, "laying
for" an opportunity to be oficious,
there would be music in the air
Upon a great state occasion, the
White House vestibule does not
present an appearance in keeping
with the dignity of the official and
private residence of the Chief Elk
ecutive of a great nation. There
are a lot of messengers lounging
about in various stages of seedy
black garments, no two of them
alike, and of a prehistoric cut, sug-
gestive of a Congressman "fresh
from the people," to whose locks
the village barber had given the
finishing %tonsorial touch. There
is the general air of hotel lobby
rather than of a residence, with a
suggestion of department rotun-
da. Badinage aside, the pith and
point of what is apparent to all is
that there is too much department
and too little residence or home
about the White House. In the
days when Washington was a coun-
try town, with the Capitol at one
end and the White House at the
other, and the family wash was
hung out to dry in the east room
or on the back palings; in the
homespun era of hog and hominy,
cob pipes, apple brandy and home
made currant vino, when most OF
the secretaries carried their Offices
in the tops of their hats, and the
whole business of the little young
government didn't amount to that
of an express office now, the White
House was thought too big for this
Observation-Disclosures of a coun-
try, and it would have served for
the whole country, with a sign on
the door, coffee of the United
States" for the information OF
those having business to transact
with it. There is sentiment con-
nected with the White House
as the Presidents home that is
stronger than the mere fact of its
being used as a chief executive de-
partment. The history and social
traditions best remembered are
those of a home, and not altogeth-
er those of an office.

THE p0Oi. BROKEN.
and the Flour Mills Enjoying n Co
aS-YOu s,lease RaCe.

For the week ending yesterday the pro-
duct Of the flour mills was 1O5. $50 barrels,
the result of extra time and better stage
Of water. The water pool for two thirds
running time was broken at noon yeSter-
day, and the mills are running at go-aS-
you please gait. The Northwestern Miller
will say Of this:
Some of the mills, under the old arrange
ment, were not able TO run any better than
before the pool was formed, and an attempt
was made to reduce the running time 10 one
half. This other millerS, better situated de-
INJURED to- and an abandonment of negotia-
tons was the result. As the matter now
stands, however, notoly can do effective
work, ana. provided the West side water
power company does not enforce the sixteen
hour clause OF its leases, it is quito likely
that those concerned will soon be will
ing to enter a new deal on some basis.
There has been an active demand for -four,
and everybody is making extra efforts to get
out ell that is possible. All the engines that
we have, seven in number, are being utilized
TO the fullest extent, and furnish power for
producing not far from 10000 barrels daily.
The weeks product will doubtless reach TO-
600 or over, though the water power is by no
means good. Some OF the larger firms con-
tinue to store flour to q small extent. the
greatest part of il being bakers in sacks
The flour market is pronounced in healthy
condition, prices being firm with fair sales.
For several days previous to Tuesday there
was an active demad at advanced quotations,
this being most pronounced from abroad,
but when wheat broke, on the day named,
there was diminutiOn in orders.

lods-fOur centuries of simple and happy
faith, in which the Iovliness of God was the
uppermost thought. and the art of the time
indicated the same feeling; from the fourth
to the eighth century the spirit of religious
power predominated and the gleat Roman
esque churches of the time bespoke that
idea; from the eighth to the twelfth century
was the dark age of the Christian church,
and the holy houses were more like prisons
or houses of refuge than places of worship.
Painting showed the same influences to
have been in effect. During the early days
there were no representations of Christ,
through the second period His Majesty
and power were portrayed, and
during the Dark Ages pictures
of hell, the judgment and kindred topics
showed the status of the popular mind.
When the year 1000 passed without the
end of the world having come, a happier
view was taken Of things, and was ind-
Gated III the art of the time. From the
twelfth to the fifteenth century hopefulness
had succeeded the despair of the dark ages,
and it was in this time of great spiritual
awakening that the Gothic architecture sud-
denly came into being and was quickly per-
fecied. The lecturer explained the devel-
opment of the Gothic art at great length.
and clearly showed the intimate relation
existing between it and the high spirituality
of the time. Views Of many of the great
cathedrals were given, and the subject was
so SkillfullY handled that the close attention
of the audience was held throughout. The
lecture was of unusual interest. and was
highly instructive to all who heard it.

A terrible crash, with accompaniment of
cracking tinbers and roar of falling wheat,
frightened the inhabitants of Southeast
Minneapolis soon after o'clock yesterday
morning. The crash came from the Pills
bury elevator at Ninth avenue and Ninth
street. the north side of which had given
way, scattering 900 bushels Of wheat
over the Manitoba tracks. 1t was the re-
cent addition which gave way and the acct
dent was not unexpected. Supt. Evering-
ton had noticed bulglng of this wall on
Tuesday. and early yesterday morning men
were put to work TO remove the wheat;
while 50 engaged, with preliminary crack
down came the wall. s'rhe terrific weight of
wheat tlattened out several Manitoba cars
as though they had been toys A half hun
dred men were put to work and soon had
the tracks clear. Supt. Everington said:
This addition to the elevator proper has
just been completed by l.. c. Bisbce, the con-
tractor. In my opinion the iron brace rod
which held the row OF bins over the track to
the bins on the SOath side OF the elevator were
not more than half strong enough. They
should have at least been doubled. told
Bisbee so at the time He thought they were
sufficient The bins in this part of the addi-
ton were only half full. The same trouble is
likely TO arise on the south side If the wheat
is not moved at once. And | wouldn't be

the hall had been draped with two large
flags which were suspended from the center

corners being Topped up with cords of black
and white. Across the front of the stage
extended railing draped with black and
white. The choir sat at the left OF the
stage, and the chairman in the center. Judge
J.P. Rea called the gathering to order. made
few appropriate remarks and introduced
Rev. Mr.. Shutter, who led in prayer.
